I pluck a single rose.
Its crimson bloom
rests in my hand,
a compass for my life.
Invisible thorns
dig into old wounds.
Yet the fragrance
whispers softly—
The past is past.
You have never
truly been defeated.

I pluck a single rose.
Its crimson bloom
rests in my hand,
a compass for my life.
Invisible thorns
dig into old wounds.
Yet the fragrance
whispers softly—
The past is past.
You have never
truly been defeated.
A rose between my lips,
I entrust it with my heart.
Even as I sit
with graceful composure,
the truth cannot be hidden.
No words,
no confession—
only the elegant rose
speaks for
what I keep inside.

Description: A poem about living through exploitative relationships and finding peace, boundaries, and strength to escape and move on from them.
A crown of roses
rests upon my head,
enveloping me
in the fragrance of dreams.
The crimson blooms
whisper of love,
while their tiny thorns
speak of truth.
Awakening comes suddenly.
And then,
I gaze
upon the roses.
A poem I actually made for myself (which was a first), for when I’ll be monitored in the hospital after my transplant.
The say I have to stay for a month

"Conjunction of Love"
Technically wrote it at 3 AM in Japan on the 6th. Still that's the 6th in most of the rest of the world 😉😜🙂

A filter of blue—
a world wrapped
in loneliness and silence,
sinking into sorrow.
Then,
a butterfly
drifts down,
seeking
the faint fragrance
of joy.
And quietly,
it settles
upon a single rose.
Celebrate and honor your inner child 🫶🏼☺️✨

I try to ease
the weight upon my heart,
yet instead of fading,
it only grows.
A tiny uneasiness—
like the distance
between you and me.
Could I ever
cross that distance
and see you
once again?
Open your eyes and speak out.
Care more.
No justice no peace…
